If you need to put a hydrofoil on your boat you are;

1. Either underpowered for the type of boat you have - i.e. big boat small
motor, or..

2. You have the wrong propeller on your motor. If your boat/motor
combination is propped properly you have no need for a hydrofoil.

If your looking for an inexpensive way out, there is non. Hydrofoils create
more drag/friction in the water. Create a greater strain on the transom.
Loose 2 MPH on top end speed. Put holes in your cavitations plate. Not a
good idea.

If this is an older boat and the motor is the right size for the boat, you
may have water trapped in the floatation foam under the floor.

One of them caused severe cracks in my cavitation plate. I found out that
if
you learn how to use your motor trim you don't need a stabilizer.

OK -- I still like kayaks and float tubes, but I'm trying to learn about
bass
boats. What do you guys think about hydrofoil stabilizers -- Do they
actually
help get your boat on plane quicker? Do you actually save money on gas?
Which one is best? All input greatly appreciated.
